Summary[]
Donkey Kong is a recurring character within the Mario series, as well as the star of his own spin-off series. He is the chosen protector and future king of DK Island, who has regularly found himself clashing with the Kremlings and their ruler, King K. Rool. The original Donkey Kong, his grandfather, was said to do battle with Mario's father/relative, Jumpan, thereby sparking a rivalry between him and the current Donkey Kong.
